Thanks Dan. Unfortunately, you're right on the '05's. The pre-'05's
use the same eccentric chain adjuster as the T-3's. With that set-up
you can raise the forks and invert the adjuster and achieve ~1-5/8"
lowering. I ran my Trophy this way for a while and it completely
transformed the bike. Unfortunately, it also bottomed out the lowers.
